The person who came was Mia Redgrave, the eldest daughter of the Redgrave Family.
"You little rascal! Gone crazy again, have you? What time is it now, how come you're just getting home?"
Lena Lynch scolded her with more bark than bite, pulling her into the Redgrave Family home.
Jonathan Redgrave walked into the bright and grand reception room, casually throwing his coat to a servant.
He sat directly on an old-fashioned rosewood chair, shifting slightly to find a comfortable position.
"What did you go to Ethan Sterling's company for this afternoon?"
"Dad! I just wanted to see the legendary Ethan Sterling! But I didn't see him at all; instead, a fan was overly attentive to me. He said he knows a way to help me meet Ethan smoothly!"
Holding a cup of coffee, Mia's exquisitely beautiful face couldn't hide her smugness.
In her teens, she was a top student at Sovereign Academy. On the most popular social platform in Z Nation, she boasts millions of followers.
Her persona is that of an innocent and wealthy heiress. Gentle, virtuous, versatile, and talented.
But just being a praised heiress was far from her goal. She dedicated herself to developing poverty alleviation projects, using Jonathan Redgrave's influence to draw in the wealthy and powerful for charity work.
She hadn't formally stepped into society, yet her kind and beautiful persona was already deeply ingrained in people's minds.
Jonathan introduced her to some wealthy and powerful individuals, but none caught her eye.
Only the most outstanding man was worthy of her, and that man was—Ethan Sterling.
"That's not too bad."
Jonathan's face showed a hint of joy when he heard her words.
Lena Lynch came in, her expression not looking good. "Mona, what does Leo mean to you then?"
Why bring up Leo out of nowhere!
Upon hearing this, Mia's face remained calm, as she sipped her coffee. "Leo is just a manager of that small Lynch Family group. Not to mention the future, even now, he can't offer me much. I'm not foolish enough to give up so many golden opportunities for Leo Lynch!"
Compared to Sterling Group, what does the Lynch Family even count for!
During her freshman year, she was fond of Leo Lynch, never expecting that Leo liked that bitch Seraphina Redgrave instead! In that case, she didn't mind being ruthless.
Later, Mia went to great lengths to get Leo in her grasp, and Leo obeyed her every command.
Initially, she was very proud, but after three years, even if Leo Lynch were a fairy, she was tired of him.
Lena felt uneasy inside, and her voice unconsciously became heavier. "Mona, you're going too far!"
Who is Ethan Sterling? Does Mia not know her own weight?
"Mom! Am I still your biological daughter? Why do you always speak for outsiders!" Mia felt quite uncomfortable being put in a difficult position. "I just haven't had the chance to meet Ethan. Once I do, I guarantee he'll be head over heels for me!"
"What do you know? Do you know what kind of person Ethan Sterling is to speak so recklessly?"
Lena let out a long sigh, staring at her daughter, "Even your father doesn't dare to speak loudly in front of him,
Ethan Sterling.
Many people lost their families because of him.
"We're all in the business world, the barefoot aren't afraid of those with shoes! We have no enmity with him; he won't mercilessly attack us."
Mia was completely lost in her own fantasies.
"I think you're just bewitched, refusing to give up until your back's against the wall!" Lena was so angry her chest ached.
"Okay, okay, you too! Let Mona do what she wants. Ethan Sterling, no matter how formidable, is just a man. Since ancient times, heroes have been swayed by beauty; what do we have to fear from him!"
With a son-in-law like Ethan Sterling, the Redgrave Family is sure to soar to new heights!
If one day, Mia truly marries Ethan Sterling, wouldn't Jonathan Redgrave be the one who commands the winds and rains in Z Nation?
"Dad's right! Not like you, who tells me to give up all the time." Mia proudly walked out of the reception room.
"I'm going to rest now."
Without paying attention to Jonathan and Lena's reactions, Mia directly entered her room.
A moment later, a sudden scream came from Mia's room.
"Ghost! There's a ghost!"
The sound was truly spine-chilling.
Jonathan and Lena hurriedly ran into Mia's room.
Her room was elegant and generous, perfectly matching her pure and gentle image.
Mia hurriedly rushed out from the bathroom.
The couple exchanged glances and both entered the bathroom, only to see a string of bloody red writings on the large mirror on the wall.
"Long time no see!"
Suddenly, Mia screamed again. Everyone turned their gaze towards where she looked, seeing a large trail of bloody footprints outside the window!
Lena was momentarily dumbfounded, and it was a nearby maid who helped her out of the room.
Jonathan, who had weathered many storms, forcibly steadied his nerves.
He led people outside the window and found a large series of continuous bloody footprints on the cobblestone road outside Mia's window.
They stretched all the way to the house where Seraphina used to live, now the doghouse.
Next to the window was a photo of Seraphina, the person in the frame smiling right at them.
As if triggered by some mechanism, two lines of bloody tears suddenly flowed from the photo!
"Ah..."
Mia could no longer withstand such a shock and immediately fainted.
"Help the Miss back into the room and keep a close watch on her!"
Jonathan agitatedly tugged at his tie in front of his neck. Suddenly, he noticed that the bloody footprints were moving, as if someone was walking back and forth in the room.
The long-broken radio suddenly squeaked and crackled.
"I'm back, to send you all to Hell."
